A national trade body is celebrating a supplier in Basildon, who goes the extra mile to support the building materials industry.
The Builders Merchants Federation (BMF), together with Builders’ Merchants News (BMN), have joined forces to identify the Top 100 Supplier Influencers across the sector and shine a light on their success.
Peter Holmes is Sales Director at MDM Timber, based in Basildon and was nominated after meeting key criteria including involvement, presence, charity and community work as well as commitment to the industry.
Using social media, the BMF will highlight the work of each influencer ahead of a celebration Gala Dinner later this year.
Peter said: “It was real surprise to be nominated as one of the Top 100 Supplier Influencers and to be considered in the company of such esteemed trade figures is a huge honour.
A big thanks must go to all my colleagues, and I would consider this nomination as recognition of all the hard work and dedication by the whole team at MDM.”
The initiative follows last year’s Top 100 Merchant Influencers which recognised builders’ merchants who stepped up to support their communities.
John Newcomb, Chief Executive of the BMF, said: “The BMF is proud to represent a building materials industry that encompasses merchants and their suppliers.
“After the success of last year’s Top 100 Merchant Influencers we’re delighted to be partnering with BMN again in 2023 to highlight the achievements of the Top 100 Supplier Influencers.
“Shining a light on individuals who go above and beyond in their service to our industry, this new accolade reflects the positive influence each of the nominated individuals selected has both on the people around them and on the wider building materials industry.
“We look forward to celebrating their achievements.”
